Who Is Caryn Chandler? Get to Know Matt Roloff’s New Girlfriend!

When we first met the pumpkin farmers back in 2006, they were madly in love and raising their four kids, twins Zach and Jeremy, Molly, and Jacob! Nowadays, their life looks pretty different — they just became grandparents for the first time with the birth of Zach’s baby boy Jackson, and the pair announced their separation last year after more than 30 years of marriage.

They worked together before they started dating

Before they were a couple, Caryn worked as the farm manager at Roloff Farms, the pumpkin farm outside of Portland where the reality TV family both lives and works. Presumably, she had a pretty good relationship with Amy before she started dating Matt.

The relationship wasn’t easy for Amy to accept

On an episode of Little People, Big World, the mother-of-four was upset when Matt’s new girlfriend showed up to their son Zach and daughter-in-law Tori’s gender reveal party. She explained, “Seeing Caryn here threw me for a loop more than I would have liked. I think coming here to this particular event is an intimate family thing… It just throws a whole different dynamic to my life here on the farm.”

Matt and Caryn have a lot in common

He said that their similarities were something his marriage to Amy lacked.

“We enjoy the same sort of social settings, and company and friendship,” he gushed. “Amy and I didn’t have that. It’s different. This is a really neat person that’s full of life and I think she’s cute.”
